Super-Duper Mega April Giveaway!

I have been so totally remiss when it comes to my "monthly" giveaways...I think I've only had one since I started my blog last October! Today I'm making good on my promise & launching a Super-Duper Mega Giveaway with not one...not two...but FIVE different prizes to make up for the months I've missed. And I promise to keep up with my monthly giveaways in future!

To win one of these, all you need to do is subscribe to my mailing list - that's where I'll draw the names of the winners. If you'd like to leave a comment or email me with your preferred prize, I'll keep that in mind if I happen to draw your name. Easy!

The 5th prize is an extra special one...an original Mixed Media piece called (rather unimaginatively) Jack Rabbit. It's an ink drawing on tea-stained Hahnemuhle paper, on a collaged background, mounted to brown kraft card (sheet size 6x6"). This is an original - not a reproduction - & is worth $85 (the winner gets a pack of Jelly tags too).

Picking a winner of this one is a little bit different...rather than just drawing a name out of a hat, I'd like you to write a Haiku about a bunny. Either post your little poem in the comments or email it to me & I'll pick my favourite!

I'm announcing the winners in a week's time, so you have until Wednesday the 9th of April to sign up to my mailing list & submit your Haiku if you want a chance to win the bunny! :)

MajabaFor all you Etsy people out there, Juln's site Majaba - where you can easily view your shop & item hearts, & check out your views - has just been updated , so keeping track of your views is faster, easier & more reliable than ever. Julian has tweaked the View Counter so you can now check all of your pages, no matter how many listings in your shop, & he's working on further enhancements & features to be announced soon! He's also offering advertising space for Etsy sellers now - Majaba receives about 12-15,000 hits a day at the moment, & it's increasing daily! So if you're interested in advertising, take a look here.

In other news, I'm collaborating with Julian on some very exciting top secret projects...so stay tuned for more about that later!
